tatum asked...
mmmm. Where do you find the time to sew and make so many adorable crafts? What would you say is your main source of inspiration?
well, i usually stay up late into the night sewing and doing other things. sometimes i may be so excited to get my hands on something and sew when my kids are awake. i will turn around in my chair and it looks like a tornado hit.
i find inspiration in so many places. i think my mind is always in search of inspiration all day long. when i am at the mall, i look at the clothes the manequins are wearing, the textures and color combos are always inspirational. i love love love flickr. i could browse on that all day long! you can see my favorites here. i love magazines and clip out pages. if i see colors that i love or pictures, and ideas, i cut them out and put them on my cork board above my sewing machine. it is constant eye candy, and is slowly getting sweeter.
etsy is also a great source of inspiration, as a lot of you know.
music gets me in a happy mood. it gets my wheels spinning with new ideas and things to create. i love good music.
thanks for your questions. it is giving me something to blog about with out recent pictures on hand! keep them comin!

I admire your creativity so much! Thanks for sharing. I love your cork board. What a nifty idea! You are a genius!
i also love vintage fabric! {k vintage anything really} i do want to do pillows, but i don't want to cut it up! but then i'll have to search for the perfect material to go around and back for a quilt.. and we don't have the best selection up here! hmm, we shall see!
i have a cork board also! it sure helps..
you should definatly take your digital camera. it's better then nothing, and photoshop can work wonders! all i have is a 3yr old sony cyber shot, and it helps those pictures so much. they won't be as good, but o-well.. one of these days i'll get a good camera!
so my question/request: your meeting, dating, engaged story! very excited to hear that one!
